Chapter 585: Decisive Battle

Pang Tong's side trapped part of the main force of the Kushan army within a line of sky,

On the one hand, to destroy the boulder to open the passage,

Take these soldiers prisoners,

On the other hand,

It is also necessary to prepare for the next big army to face Mamel outside the first line of heaven,

And this takes a lot of time,

Especially in the special environment of the first line of sky,

Although it is an excellent ambush location,

But it is precisely because of the long and narrow terrain,

so that the captives were taken in,

It's going to be very difficult and trivial,

If in the process,

Mamel reacted,

Or these Kushan armies in the canyon desperately opened the passage,

So everything Pang Tong did before,

It has completely become a bamboo basket for water.

So, this is through Liu Jun,

gave an order to Ma Chao and them,

Let them get here as fast as they can,

And defend the entrance to the sky at all costs,

That's why we have this scene today.

As for whether Mamel will take a detour to another road,

Pang Tong was sure that Mamel would not do this,

On the one hand, it's because of the big loss here,

Mamel's temperament has long been figured out by Pang Tong,

This man is extremely confident,

It also means that his revenge is far greater than that of other people.

Since he has suffered such a painful defeat,

His first instinct must have been to find a place here.

At least, until he thinks he's completely unmatched,

It will never go back easily,

Second, Tucker's army lost over there,

Even if the other party saw the bluff of Ma's super army,

But after such a long time,

Especially Ma Chao and others,

Dare to give up the defense over there,

The whole army came near this line of heaven,

So Mamel, who has experienced the reality before,

will also muttered in the depths of his heart,

thought this was another trick of the Han army,

So they won't attack on that side.

What's more, with the existence of Liu Jun,

What is the wind and grass in the army of Mamel,

Pang Tong is fully able to grasp the news at the first time,

With this disparity in information,

will definitely be able to respond appropriately in time,

It can be said that all the accidents have been taken into account.

Ma Chao finally arrived here before dark,

They are guided by local guides,

Walked a few trails,

This is to be able to avoid Tucker's army,

and came here before them,

Don't need Ma Chao's deliberate instructions,

Pound had already gone to arrange for men to set up camp,

There's something strange about their camp,

It's not that it's the back of the mountain wall and faces the direction of the Kushan army,

Instead, two camps were built,

One leaning on the mountain wall is mainly outwardly defended,

Another relatively small camp,

But it was built in a ray of heaven,

Looking like that, as if you want to defend against the enemy inside the sky,

But that's exactly what happened.

Ma Chao their task,

Not only to defend against the attack of the army on Mamel's side,

Another important task,

It is to ensure that these Kushan armies inside the first-line sky,

Can't escape outside.

Ma Chao rode a war horse to a high ground,

He looked lazily into the distance,

That's where the Kushan army is,

A puff of smoke and dust rose faintly,

The corners of Ma Chao's mouth curled,

Whispering to himself:

"This group of guys isn't too slow......

Pound had just finished arranging trivial matters at the moment,

slowly came to Ma Chao's side,

Hand on pergola looked in the same direction,

Sighing softly:

"Hey, I can't stop for a moment, it seems that we are working hard!"

Ma Chao glanced at Pound,

The faint smile on the corner of the other party's mouth,

has already shown that his words at the moment are insincere,

Ma Chao is not so kind to save face for the other party,

directly pierced the other party's words:

"I don't know how excited I am if I get cheap here, the two thousand flying cavalry battalions have already been arranged outside by you, and I have already made all the preparations."

"Hey, hey, Meng Qi, I still can't hide anything from you!"

Pound also didn't hide half a point,

directly answered Ma Chao,

Turned around and walked down,

The words came softly,

"It seems that there won't be too many people coming, it should just be a temptation, the two thousand flying cavalry battalion is enough to deal with, let the brothers rest and rest. The next headache is you, starting tomorrow, you will face a hard battle, and when the time comes, it will be you, the main general, who will charge into battle......"

Listening to Pound's words,

Ma Chao shook his head and didn't speak,

stretched a big lazy waist,

Hands behind your head,

Lying on horseback so gracefully,

Quietly looking at the clouds in the sky,

In the light of hope,

turned red,

Extraordinarily dazzling,

Erlang's legs swayed slowly,

Ma Chao asked softly:

"Right sacrificial wine, what are you going to do next? Just wait quietly? ”

After muttering this sentence,

Ma Chao closed his eyes quietly,

And he fell asleep on horseback,

I don't care at all,

A killing campaign is about to unfold not far away.

The sky finally darkened,

Within a glimmer of days,

Mingbayi raised his head and looked at the sky,

The dim rays of sunlight are in the sky,

appears even darker,

Waited for half a day,

Ming Bayi had already guessed Pang Tong's strategy,

It is also deduced that the Han army does not have enough manpower on the cliff.

Order the soldiers of the Kushan Army on the front line,

Take turns digging boulders,

At the same time, send someone to contact the slave soldiers,

But the news from there was not ideal.

According to the reported situation,

When the slave soldiers found out that they were besieged here,

openly began to revolt,

Kill the overseers of the Kushan Empire on the spot,

and confronted the armies of the Kushan Empire,

The two sides were clearly divided into two groups,

Now that Mingbayi can control,

Only a glimmer of the second half of the day,

Although the army of the Kushan Empire is well-equipped,

occupies an absolute advantage,

But in this narrow terrain,

This little advantage can't be played at all.

Therefore, the Mingbayi did not order an attack on them at all.

The two sides will be able to get along well.

The speed of the boulder excavation is very slow,

But the anxious Mingbayi didn't have any way,

These troops trapped in this line of heaven,

are the main forces of the war,

At that time, in order to reduce the burden on the troops,

Speed up the speed of passage to the first line of heaven,

These warriors have nothing but weapons at hand,

There is simply no suitable tool for opening the mountain,

Now there is no way,

Only by using weapons such as spears, steel knives, etc.,

Dig the boulder,

It's not that I haven't thought about it before,

Climb past from the boulder, Qiandu Chinese Net

But the boulder is clearly polished,

Not only does it fit quite closely with the mountain wall,

And the height is also very amazing,

In addition, there were countless obstructions that Pang Tong ordered people to throw from above,

As a result, it is impossible to climb over at all,

At most, a few nimble soldiers,

Able to barely climb over,

But Mingbayi also came up with a solution,

It's to let the soldiers who can climb over the past,

Use cloak and clothing to weave a long rope,

Then with the help of ropes, the soldiers slowly climbed over that side,

Although the speed is not fast,

But it's finally a solution.

However, the good times did not last long,

There are less than a hundred soldiers here,

When the two sides work together to start digging the boulder,

Suddenly a Han light cavalry appeared,

The number of these cavalry was not very large,

It looks like an ordinary scout,

But in his hand he has a strange weapon,

Just four or five people in a salvo,

More than a dozen people were shot into the hornet's nest,

If it weren't for the fact that Mingbayi saw that the situation was not good,

Command all men to throw up their hands and give up resistance,

I'm afraid that these less than a hundred Kushan soldiers,

will be shot by all opponents at once.

The leader of this scout team is Ma Chao's younger brother Ma Tie,

This time, he sneaked out,

Follow the eldest brother to fight on the battlefield,

How did Ma Chao catch him,

He refused to leave the army,

In the end, Ma Chao was helpless,

can only allow Ma Tie to follow the expedition,

But although Ma Chao loves his younger brother,

But the requirements for him are extremely strict,

not give him any privileges and special care at all,

Let him start from the most basic soldiers,

Ma Tie is also worthy of being behind the door,

With its good skills and brave courage,

has accumulated a lot of military exploits,

Now a Scout Commander,

Under his command of more than a dozen elite scouts,

This time, they were ordered to come to this line of heaven to investigate the situation.

I didn't think about it, but I found such a situation,

Although the clothes on Mingbayi's body are torn in many places,

Looks unusually embarrassed,

But his handsome temperament,

made Ma Tie suddenly realize the extraordinary identity of this person,

Without any hesitation, he tied up the man,

Those Kushan Empire soldiers still want to resist desperately,

But under the repeater,

After losing more than a dozen people again,

They could only watch angrily as Ming Bayi was tied up by the Han army.

The soldiers of the Kushan Empire who were dropped their weapons,

Under the guard of a dozen Han army scouts,

can only sit on the ground on his knees with his head in his hands,

Ma Tie returned to the road with the immobile Ming Bayi alone.

On the other side of the sky,

Pang Tong lay comfortably in the tent,

Li Ru and Xu Rong also sat on one side,

Li Ru's demeanor was a little leisurely,

One hand gently rubbed the beard under the chin,

There is a smile on the corner of his mouth,

Xu Rong looked a little serious,

This is also in line with Xu Rong's consistent style,

It's just that every time I glance at Pang Tong inadvertently,

There will be a hint of a complex light.

"Old General Xu, I don't have flowers on my face, why do you look at me like this?"

Pang Tong rolled his eyes and said helplessly,

Xu Rong is really not good at making small movements,

He secretly glanced at Pang Tong's actions,

Not to mention being noticed by Pang Tong,

Even Li Ru on the side found out early,

Li Ru chuckled silently.

Xu Rong pulled the corners of his mouth a little unnaturally and smiled,

Hurriedly spoke:

"Right Sake Lord......"

"Old general, if you don't dislike Pang, just call me Shiyuan!"

Pang Tong directly interrupted Xu Rong's words,

This impolite act,

If it were replaced by those ordinary literati,

I'm afraid I'm already displeased,

Although Pang Tong's current status and position are higher than the two of them,

But Li Ru and Xu Rong,

First, the seniority is old enough,

Second, they are all famous people all over the world,

Pang Tong is just a fledgling hairy boy,

Although he got a big win,

But he is not qualified,

Pose in front of the two of them.

But these two are not poor sours who like red tape,

Especially Xu Rong,

Although the act is a bit one-sided,

But after all, he was born in the army,

What I like is a refreshing guy,

Hearing Pang Tong say this,

He also seemed to relax a lot,

"Right...... Eh, Shiyuan, today's big victory, I haven't had time to congratulate, now replace wine with tea, toast you with a glass, the future is terrifying! ”

Pang Tongyi turned over and sat up,

Raise your neck and drink all the water in the teacup,

exaggerated to drink the perfect wine,

laughed at Xu Rong and said:

"Hahaha, Lao Xu, thank you for the wine!"

After hearing Pang Tong's title,

Xu Rong was obviously stunned for a moment,

The smile on his face was a little brighter,

Li Ru on the side couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Pang Tong then spoke:

"Two, I know, you've actually been testing me, how about it, the performance of this sacrificial wine is still satisfying to the two of you?"

While saying this,

Pang Tong's face was triumphant,

The nostrils are about to lift up to the sky,

That looks even more funny,

Li Ru gently twisted his beard and said:

"Shi Yuan, what you say is quite 'modest', but the old man likes it very much! Hahaha! ”

His eyes narrowed slightly,

The words went on and on:

"Are you going to swallow this 300,000 army in one gulp?"

"Tut-tut, Mr. Li has such a big breath, the kid doesn't have such a big appetite......"

"Hey, let's fool the ghost."

Li Ru waved his hand unceremoniously,

The expression was very dismissive.

Pang Tong didn't feel the slightest embarrassment,

Raised his head and drank a cup of tea again,

"Old General Li thinks my plan is missing?"

Pang Tong had never told the two of them about his next specific plans before.

But he asked directly,

With Li Ru's vision and strategy,

It is not difficult to see his purpose,

But if you want to understand his methods,

But it's not an easy thing to do.

This is Pang Tong's examination of Li Ru,

Pang Tong is not a generous person,

Before Li Ru was clearly examining and examining the school,

His heart is also clear,

Now it's just a tooth for a tooth,

So he didn't have half a psychological burden at all.

After Xu Rong heard Pang Tong's words,

couldn't help but tremble a little,

But it was to hold back the smile in my heart.

A helpless smile appeared on Li Ru's face,

He didn't expect it,

This kid's revenge is so strong,

He refused to show weakness at all,

"You kid, hahaha. I guess that Ma Chao's little guy should have returned to the first line of heaven at this moment, completely blocking the path of these Kushan army, presumably you are going to start a decisive battle with the Kushan Empire outside this line of heaven......"

"Hey, hey, hey, it's worthy of an old fox......"

"Decisive battle?!"
